However, the last step is to set specific programs to automatically run with specific graphics cards (you can already do this manually from the command line at this point, but that’s just not ideal in my mind) without logging out. If you’ve made it to this point, and things are working, hurray! You can stop here if you’re happy. Once you think things are working, check if Nvidia graphics card is on: If after all of the above your computer still aren’t working properly, drop me a comment below and I’ll see if I can help or at least point you to some other resources. Picture below so you know you’re in the right spot: The repair should semi-automatically fix any packages that got broken (probably xserver xorg/Intel graphics related). As a reminder, the GRUB menu is the black screen after starting up your computer where you select your operating system, and the correct option is the line that ends with the text “(recovery mode).” Select the “dpkg” option to repair broken packages. All you need to do is enter “Recovery Mode” from the GRUB menu. You can recover from this without wiping and starting over. If your computer crashed -or- after restarting you are either unable to boot into Ubuntu or boot to an entirely black screen, don’t panic. If after some/all of the steps above everything is working, congratulations! If not, don’t feel bad – I probably tried 10 different things before I got everything working stably. If you don’t have a fresh install, I recommend 1) BACK UP ALL YOUR FILES and 2) purge your current graphics card drivers before we begin using the following command: If you’re continuing on from Part I of this guide, the only configuration change that should have been made so far is fixing the trackpad issue. By the end of this set-up you should have both your nvidia and Intel drivers working, and should be able to quickly/easily switch between driver sets with the click of a button (or a single-line command).īefore beginning this guide you should have a computer (in this case the Gigabyte Aero 14 laptop) with Ubuntu (16.04) freshly installed and ideally minimal other configuration/driver changes. These steps will continue on those begun in Part I of this guide, and will focus entirely on getting your graphics cards working properly. #UBUNTU INTEL GRAPHICS DRIVER INSTALL INSTALL#Welcome to Part II of your Ubuntu install guide on the Gigabyte Aero 14. #UBUNTU INTEL GRAPHICS DRIVER INSTALL HOW TO#How to Install Ubuntu 16.04 on a Gigabyte Aero 14 Laptop, Part II: Graphics Drivers and Troubleshooting
